FLASH: 3D Chemical Modeling with Flash :-)

[Branden Hall]

Basic Stats:

Total File Size: ~13K

Actual Engine: ~8K

Max points: ~100 (starts to bog down processors under 300mHz at about 60)


On a plane ride home from Atlanta Sunday night I wrote a whole new 3D

engine, which is much smaller, faster, and efficient than my Gumball engine.

The actual trig functions on the backend are a slighted mod'ed version of

John C.s trig lib (That inifinity calc came in nice and handy!)  The really

neat part of this engine is actually not even the increased robustness and

speed, its the fact that it reads in external models.  I have a PHP script

on my server thats actually reading true molecular models in the XYZ format

and then converting those files into something that flash can read.  So, if

anyone out there has any XYZ models of anything fun like Caffine, ethanol,

etc. let me know! :-)
